Nuget packages for TFS VSO Client Object Model

Posted on One min read

Finally the Client Object Model for TFS / VSO is finally distributed with Nuget Packages, as you can read here. This is a great news especially because the Dll are finally redistributable, and your tool does not need to require a previous installation of Visual Studio or Team Explorer, or Client Object Model Package.

Another interesting fact, is that REST API are now supported for TFS 2015 / VSO (previous version of TFS does not support REST API). If you have traditional application that uses Client Object Model, you can remove all the references to the old dll and directly reference the ExtendedClient Package and you are ready to go.
